Punk Rock Faggots upset someone. How sad. |
http://portland.indymedia.org/en/2006/02/334658.shtml
A band who calls themselves "Punk Rock Faggots" did a set in Portland
and got some guy upset by the fact that apparently none of the band
members are gay. So we worked up a statement that he was allowed to
read to the crowd before the band started their set.
I admit I don't get it. You have to be gay before you can call
_yourself_ a *****? And if you do call _yourself_ a *****, that's
some how hate speech? The band got its name from High School when they
were called punk faggots by their fellow classmates.
Some times the left gets stupid.

As far as I know none of the members of the Queers are gay and they've
been going at it for years.

The left does that a lot. Remember what happened to the Ypsilanti Niggers?

I don't know the whole story on this, so I'm probably ranting for
nothing, but unfortunately, the epithet "*****" is not reserved for
gays. Pink normal bully assholes in high school use "*****" and
"queer" as a general term of abuse, and the fact that you've never so
much as thought of sucking a ***** does not immunize you from the slur.
The Monkees weren't monkeys, either.
Obviously, if these guys are really homophobic, I have no sympathy for
them whatsoever, but if they're just more victims of normals trying to
enforce conformity through cruelty, they ought to be able to proudly
assume the label "*****" just as gays do.

I was in a cure, joy division, bauhaus, and depeche mode cover band
called "Art Fag" for about two weeks.
No one in the band was actually gay and by the third practice we were
all sick of the gimick, but i still love the name.

Hey, when I was in the marching band (yeah, yeah, I know, "this one time at
band camp", etc.), we referred to ourselves as "band fags". Didn't bother
anyone.

Yeh...but at most schools the fag hierarchy goes: (listed in order from
least gay to most gay)
Band fag - not really gay, but wierd.
Art fag - maybe gay
Theater fag - probably gay, but straight men in the theater department
get MAD *****.
(there is a fourth ubergay category, dance fag, but most public schools
don't have much of a dance program, so they end up stuck with the
theater fags)
...
There's probably a sociological phenomenon worth studying somewhere in
there, but i'm not the guy to hang out with a bunch of *****-hungry
teenagers.

You didn't have choir fags as well?

I found the perfect name for my old college band several years after we
disbanded. Here in the US, there were a series of Anti-Perspirant ads
talking about their new clear formula. The ads had sports celebrities
dressed as intellectuals. In one of these ads, NBA player Charles
Barkley said "..and it goes on without any of that FLAKY WHITE STUFF!"
Flaky White Stuff. The greatest punk band that never lived. <g>

That would be the ultimate name for a SubGenius band. I mean, look us

I was in a band in high school. Seven members, with musical
influences all over the map.
We called ourselves "Not Food" both for the fact that it was the one
thing we weren't, and from an obscure joke in a D&D-like game most of
us played in (I played a particulary stupid Troll, and divided the
world into Food and Not Food.)
Sad thing is, we had the greatest album cover of all time planned.
Picture a table laden with a banquet. In the center is a large silver
serving tray with our lead guitarist, Max, (who was female, about
4'11", and skinny) in an evening gown lying on it, propped up on one
elbow. Behind the table the rest of us are in black tie. With her free
hand Max is tossing an apple in the air.
Back cover was the apple with seven bites taken out.

Yeah, but then CDs killed vinyl and the cover wouldn't have worked
nearly as well.

You know, you're right. Good cover art just doesn't translate well when
it's so small.
